Burroughs turned his harrowing early life and its alcoholic aftermath into six harrowing, surprisingly uplifting memoirs, including Running with Scissors and Dry. He's had the courage to grab the wolves of his past by their foaming muzzles and peer into their wild eyes until he owns them, and because of this, he's survived pretty much every experience a person in a modern-day first-world country could face in the course of their life--and emerged as an astonishingly well-adjusted person.

We'll compile the most interesting of the bunch and send them on to Augusten.

He'll choose his favorites to answer, and we'll post his replies here on Omnivoracious and on our Amazon Books Facebook page on May 7th, 14th, 21st, and 28th. You'll also be able to find a link from the same page where you can buy the book.
